REMOVABLE PIPE-BRACKET.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 703,454, dated July 1, 1902.

Application filed September 20, 1900. Serial No. 30,564. (No model.) I

To (Z6 whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, FRANCIS F. PARSONS, a citizen of the United States, residing in the city of Paterson, county of Passaic, and State of New Jersey, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Removable Pipe- Brackets; and I do hereby declare the following to be a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, such as will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to letters of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

I have in the invention presented in this description had for my object the construction of a removable supporting means for pipes. It is a well-known fact that more or less trouble has existed and exists still in the securing of the brackets firmly into the wall, and consequently whenever occasion demandedit to release the said pipes-forinstance, during repairs or in case of fires or other accidents. As a consequence the main point that I have sought to improve on in my present invention isto provide a means separate from the bracket itself that can be re movably secured therein.

In describing my invention I shall call attention to'the accompanying draWings,Wherein like letters of reference indicate corresponding parts in the different-views.

Figure 1 is a front view of my improved bracket or, as will be known in the specification, the holder. Fig. 2 is a side view of the said holder, showing the plate carrying the hooks in its operative relation to the holder. Fig. 3 is a front View of the removable sliding part that supports the pipes. 40 Fig. 4: is a side view of said sliding part; and Fig. 5 is a sectional top view on lines w a:

through Fig. 2, showing the two parts in combination with each other.

In the figures, A indicates the holder. Said 5 holder is provided with lugs B, 13?, B B B and B. On the back or rear part of said holder there is at both thetop and bottom a circular boss, which are lettered, respectively, 0 and C Said circular bosses stand out or 50 project from the top and bottom of the rear of the main body of the holder, as observed in Fig. 2, while the lugs B to BYproject in front. The bosses C and O are provided with recesses 0 extending into said bosses and apertured at@ for the reception of fastening means. The lugs B to B being made integral with the holder form spaces G, as best observed in Fig. 5, into which spaces, between the lugs B to B and the main body of the holder, the bracket K is introduced. As seen in Figs. 1 and 2, the bottom of the body terminates in a shelf or rest I, projecting toward the front, on which rest or shelf the bracket K will rest when slid down from the top primarily between the lugs B and B. This bracket K is furnished with hooks or supports J, J J J and J or any other adequate number, which hooks are either cast as parts of the body of the bracket or are otherwise fittingly attached to said body. Finally in these hooks the pipes L, L L L and L are placed, such pipes consequently being easy removable by lifting them out of their respective books or supports. It can now readily be seen from the foregoing that after the holderA has been secured to the wall the bracket Kis slid down between the guides B to B and the body, whereupon the pipes L to L are deposited in their respective-supports J to In conclusion I may state that it does not affect the validity of my invention'how many books the'bracket H is fitted with ,orwhat kind of material my removable pipe-bracket is attached to and that, further, my directattachment means-that is, what I term the holder A-can be successfully used for other brackets than, for instance, for supporting pipes.

What I consequently claim in accordance with the above description, and desire to secure protection for by Letters Patent, is

1. In a pipe-hanger, the combination of a holder, consisting of a plate providedo'none side with a boss and on the other with'a re- 5 cess extending into the boss, said boss being apertured for the reception: of fastening means, with a bracket consisting ofa plate provided with a hook, the structure of the holder and bracket being such that the latter 9 is adapted to be held removably in place Ihooks, the structureof theholderandbracket against the holder so as to cover the recess 1 being such that the latter is'adapted to be therein. held reinovably in place against the holder 15 2.
